Re: [CentOS] Systemd Adding Its Own Console To Linux Systems

I don't really see how systemd violates the "do one thing and do it well" philosophy.

systemd (as PID 1) is not necessarily the problem. The problem IMHO is the systemd _project_ that appears to have a severe case of scope creep. They have swallowed up other projects (udev, dbus), reinvented wheels (logging, ntp, network configuration), and appear to still be growing without bounds. When people don't like some of the decisions of systemd developers, and the systemd project keeps taking over more of the core OS functionality, it is frustrating to watch.
